The link works for me...

That glitched one looks creepy.

Hours and hours of JailBreak on CSS, for no discernable reason. It is boring, time consuming, and completely pointless, so why do I enjoy it?

When I play it, I try to find the perfect opportunity, and be a good boy. But I always get shot just so the round will restart

Still Terraria. Although now I have all Hallowed gear and all equipment you get with souls (such as Neptune's Shell, Rainbow Rod and shit). The only things I'm missing are the ones I would have to grind for such as most of the Mimic and the WoF drops. Both are no threat whatsoever, but Voodoo Demons are rare and Mimics even moreso.
I don't know what to do now. My base is very bare-bone, so I could probably build a super-huge awesome castle, but I really don't feel like it. Skybridges are a possibility, but Demon Wings+Ice Rod make any stairs or bridges rather pointless. I've already got several Hellevators and flooding Hell, while amusing, doesn't really do much except change the ocean into a useless desert.
Not to mention that the Multiplayer server I'm usually on has been down for quite a while now.

I think I'll start a Hardcore character and see how that goes.

Try doing something like making the world 100% glowing mushroom or something. Import mud from other worlds to feed the foxfire and then SHROOMS 4 LIFE

Or you could build an airship that is lit by crystals, that works too, I guess.

For that, you would need to level the entire world, so that the highest point is still underground. Which would be absolutely crazy, even with the Hamdrax because it's just as fast as the rest of the drills, just better at drilling shit like Adamantite, Pearlstone and Ebonstone. However, if you did that, you would have tens of thousands of blocks of dirt that you can easily turn into mud, so the second part wouldn't require any other worlds.

I keep forgetting you can turn dirt into mud What are YOU playing? - Page 3 1698457274

If you have a ton of money from killing the WoF, you could try buying explosives. Those help. What are YOU playing? - Page 3 574058837

But once you've got five themed worlds filled with stuff, half a dozen copies of every endgame item, etc., it just gets boring.

Of course, I know why: for those beautiful moments when I manage to suicide-bomb the warden, or hide during the trip to soccer and rack up six or seven kills on stupid CTs. Forget !lr, the best rounds are when the CTs all die before the halfway point.

Necro910 Thu Jan 19, 2012 12:04 am

Yes. So much yes.

When I play it, it's always "BUMRUSH HURRDURR!" when I'm calmly waiting for my grub. Then CT runs in and shoots me whilst I sit in my cell patiently.

Zangi Thu Jan 19, 2012 12:32 am

Generally, SWTOR right now....

Bulletstorm is everything I hoped it would be and more. Funny as hell, really awesome weapons and the points system works perfectly to encourage being a little creative. Aside from the moments where they consider what it actually means to murder a dick, the story is better than many games that are not supposed to be completely ridiculous.
Aside from that, I finally beat Bastion, and played a bit more TF2.

**MC Dirty** Sat Jan 21, 2012 7:10 am

Fucking. Dustforce.
That game is ridiculously difficult, but I just can't stop playing!

Johuotar Wed Apr 18, 2012 8:36 pm

Tribes Ascend because all my friends were like "This is we cool, we all play this and only this from now on."

So yeah, I play that now. Nice to have break from LoL.

**Slag** Wed Apr 18, 2012 10:36 pm

I just made the decision to buy Mount and Blade. It's as good as everyone says. Only a few things I don't like about it, like how it goes from gender equality in the original to women are inferior in Warband. Despite that, it's fun to accidentally headshot the enemy commander from across the map with a lucky arrow.

**Flying Dice** Wed Apr 18, 2012 11:24 pm

Heh. Most of my time with M&B was spent with the LoTR mod.

Mostly bronze random 4v4 in SCII screwing with people, alternating with Civ V.

Andal Wed Apr 18, 2012 11:30 pm

Played original M&B and loved it, would y'all say Warband's worth it? I liked the sandbox-y quality of the original, is that still relatively intact?

Minecraft and DF are eating my life. But mostly Minecraft, as I usually take a break from DF when Toady's doing the rapid fire update schedule thing.

**Flying Dice** Thu Apr 19, 2012 1:02 am

Heheh. Got matched up against the same crappy cheeser three times in a row. He tried to proxygate and proxycannon at the same time, alone, in a 4v4. I think I might have had him literally frothing at the mouth when I snuck a trio of Reapers into his mineral line while he was busy trying to figure out how to get past my bunker/tank contain.

From what I've seen, which honestly hasn't been too much, but it's pretty much M&B with a different map, another faction to screw around with, and a few tweaks to gameplay (like being able to attack on both sides of a horse without having to re-swing). Also sexism. Oh, and multiplayer.

I'd say it doesn't add anything particularly useful except the multiplayer. With Fire and Sword's got MP too, and is 5 bucks cheaper, but guns change a lot of the gameplay, and that's not even counting the entirely new map and factions. In the end, though, it's up to you.

Necro910 Thu Apr 19, 2012 2:57 am

Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad. Possibly the best $50 I've spent all year.

Scharfschütze powers, gooooo

**Flying Dice** Thu Apr 19, 2012 5:49 am

That was fun...

Teamed up with Ramses II; he kicked down Montezuma's door, and I shot the bastard in his dick with a good old fashioned English longbow.

Johuotar Fri Apr 20, 2012 8:41 pm

Been playing Tropico 3 campaign, had a close call with USSR almost kicked me out of my island after I ruined econymy by ordering martial law because of assasination attempt. I managed to get a lot of money on my swiss account, kinda weird how there was no minimum requirement for victory though. Too bad I failed legalising same sex marriages, the libert requirements kept me from trying it until I had already ruined economy and after that I had to do everything to avoid USSR sending their warships to own me.
Tropico has been a lot more interesting after actually giving a try to the campaing, I used to play only sandbox mode. What are YOU playing? - Page 3 2467623661

I'm playing Shoot Many Robots, a game where you... well, shoot many robots. Rainbow Pimp Gear up the wazoo, but I managed to get a few things at least halfway decent looking. Among the best gear I have available currently are an astronaut helmet, frilly pink fairy wings, and a tutu. Thankfully I managed to find a decent cowboy hat, rucksack and buffalo skull pants, so I'm not altogether painful to look at. I compensate for it by running around with a battleship cannon and a gnoming mini-missile launcher. Yes, gnoming. Guided Garden Gnomes. I like the game so far.

In Tropico 3, I usually make an alliance with the Soviets and let them make a military base on my island. Tons of money, and I can piss off people as much as I like!

Problem is that the Nationalists will throw a hissy fit, but their leader can be... persuaded.
